Hey guys, i wanted to wait before i said anything BUT i can not wait! I know I’ve done this before but, Im starting over again. AH! lol yeah, i feel like my site is all messy, crowed and ugly now and i want to start from scratch and organize and make my site look better. I wanted to make a whole new site with a new name but since this site gets a good amount of visits a day i don’t want it to die. Im not going to delete entirely everything but most of the old content will be gone and lots more new stuff will get added. Im probably gonna make everything self download-able instead if having zip packs for everything. Im also going to have all the graphics, resources and downloads on the sidebar instead of making a page will all the links. PLEASE don’t judge my decision, this is for ME and to make MY site better in whatever way i look at it so don’t tell me “omg dont” or whatever your thinking. I really dislike people who judge others sites or graphic skills, if you think your better then show it off but not by judging others, that’s just annoying. Anyway, Im also going make another layout of course. I been working on the layout for the past 3 days now and i cant seem to make it the way i would like but im still trying. The content will still be up until you see the “Maintenance Mode” on the front page but that wont happen until next week, maybe. Im also working on the new content on my free time and the site wont open until i have a good amount of it. Im also not going to update until i have the “newly site” up, the only thing ill keep updating are icons. I was thinking of getting rid of wordpress because i been finding lots of good php scripts that i would love to use and since they wont work on WP i might take it down, but i would need to find another blogging system that is not cutenews or fanupdate.

In another note, lately i been really girly >.< and if you know me im not girly at all! Im the type of girl that doesn’t wear dresses, skirts or hills. I don’t feel comfortable in those things so i just wear t-shirts and sneakers most of the time, not saying i don’t wear cute clothes when i go out but most of the time im not girly and lately i been wearing stuff that i thought i would never wear in my life. Im been getting my nails done and been doing my hair in ways i didn’t think hair would stay LOL i do believe change is always a good thing but im not sure if change in my person is a good thing.. what do u think? have you ever changed in something similar? By the way, the pic on the right are my nails that i got done a few days ago by my sister, i think these are super short next time im going get them with the leopard print and longer, my sister did them for me once and shes good at them. She also made me some of hello kitty last time but i don’t have a good pic of them to show you. Well i guess this is it for this blog, im exhausted.

As you can see i added 6 wordpress tutorials, people keepd asking for them so i decided to make some for wordpress beginners. I made them “site/bog” style, meaning i made them for people that have a site similar to mine, not all professional. I remember when i started with wordpress, i would search a tutorial on google and all these professionals would pop up that had nothing to do with my site style so it was very difficult for me to learn but i manged to learn and most of it i learn myself with no help. Im very proud of that lol. Anyway, the tutorials are very simple to learn and fast, im going to keep adding more but it all depends on the feedback i get from my visitors.

I had a great time yes terday with my family on my birthday, we had a small dinner party. I don’t really like telling people its my birthday, its embarrassing to me HAHAHA yeah i know im weird >.< but yeah the few people that did know wished me a happy birthday and it was great to see that some of my old best friends didn't forget. Im now twenty years old. Its funny how some people tell me im to old to have site, like are you serious!? how dumb are you? Im not one of those little myspace sites full of drama, so STFU. I have this site to blog about my life and to help people out not to have all that stupid drama like little kids are used to on facebook and myspace. Yeah, i have a facebook but i rarely get on it to talk to my friends so you have no right on telling me im to old to own a website, you really need to check other sites rather than just your little circle of facebook/myspace sites. If you haven't noticed, the big great sites that you love have a older owner than me. Ive seen blogs and resource sites with people that are like 26 years old, im 20 and im to old? HAHAHA! Seriously, get over me because im not going anywhereeeeeeeee, thats all i gotta say.

p.s i won second place in another icon challenge :D
